Cartilage: From Biology to Biofabrication

本書提供了關於軟骨結構、功能及軟骨組織再生方法的全面概述。它回顧了多條與軟骨組織生長和修復相關的信號傳導途徑。書的第一章探討了各種軟骨疾病的病因、診斷及病理特徵。隨後，本書介紹了在生物材料科學、再生醫學及製造技術方面的最新進展，以促進軟骨再生。它討論了水凝膠作為軟骨組織工程中一種有前景的支架，重點在於重現發育過程或成人組織中存在的微環境，以誘導形成具有原生組織生化和機械特性的軟骨結構。最後，本書涵蓋了3D列印技術在製造軟骨組織再生支架方面的應用，以生產能夠治療各種病症的生物植入物。

Prof. Mohamadreza Baghaban Eslaminejad is the Head of Bone and Cartilage group at Royan Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Technology, Tehran, Iran. He founded the adult stem cell lab in 2004 and started his research on mesenchymal stem cells as a potent tool in cell therapy for orthopedic diseases. He has supervised numerous investigations in basic sciences, preclinical and some clinical trials related to regenerative medicine. He has been appreciated with over 6 major national and international awards notably, Royan International Research Award for Reproductive Biomedicine and Stem Cell Researches (2006), the award for the Leading Researcher of Tehran (2007), The Best Researcher Award from Razi Medicine Festival (2009), the award from National Festival for Commemorating Distinguished Researchers (2010), the award for the exemplary scientist and staff of the year 2015 by ACECR (The Academic Center for Education, Culture and Research, Iran). In 2018 and2019, he was included in the list of scientific leaders of Iran. Springer Nature selected one of the Eslaminejad chapter books with the title of "3D Printing in Dentistry" as one of 2020 highlighted research. He has published more than 230 articles and 180 abstracts in peer-reviewed journals as well as national and international conferences. He has also contributed to 20 chapters and authored three books.

Dr Samaneh Hosseini is an Assistant Professor at Cell Engineering Department at Royan Institute, Tehran, Iran. Her research interest is in Tissue Engineering with specialization on biomineralization, mimetic peptides, cell-based tissue engineering for regeneration of bone and cartilage tissues. She has conducted several research projects in both basic sciences and preclinical studies in the fields of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. She has served as a referee for a number of international journals including, Stem Cell Research and Therapy (UK), International Journal of Biological Macromolecules (Netherlands), Journal of Cellular physiology (USA), Cell Proliferation (UK) and Cell Journal (Iran). She has more than 10 years of teaching experience in tissue engineering and nanobiotechnology. She has also published more than 30 research articles in the peer-reviewed international journal and served as an author or co-author in several book chapters. One of her publication, "3D printing in Dentistry" was one of the Springer Nature 2020 highlights.

教授Mohamadreza Baghaban Eslaminejad是伊朗德黑蘭Royan幹細胞生物學與技術研究所骨骼與軟骨研究小組的負責人。他於2004年創立了成人幹細胞實驗室，並開始研究間充質幹細胞，作為治療骨科疾病的有效工具。他監督了許多與再生醫學相關的基礎科學、臨床前及部分臨床試驗的研究。他獲得了超過六項主要的國內外獎項，特別是2006年的Royan國際生殖生物醫學與幹細胞研究獎、2007年德黑蘭領先研究者獎、2009年拉齊醫學節最佳研究者獎、2010年國家紀念傑出研究者節的獎項，以及2015年由ACECR（伊朗教育、文化與研究學術中心）頒發的模範科學家與員工獎。2018年和2019年，他被列入伊朗科學領袖名單。Springer Nature選擇了Eslaminejad的一本章節書籍《3D Printing in Dentistry》作為2020年突出的研究之一。他在同行評審的期刊上發表了超過230篇文章和180篇摘要，並在國內外會議上發表。除此之外，他還貢獻了20個章節並著作三本書籍。

博士Samaneh Hosseini是伊朗德黑蘭Royan研究所細胞工程系的助理教授。她的研究興趣在於組織工程，專注於生物礦化、模擬肽以及基於細胞的組織工程以再生骨骼和軟骨組織。她在組織工程和再生醫學領域進行了多個基礎科學和臨床前研究項目。她曾擔任多本國際期刊的審稿人，包括《Stem Cell Research and Therapy》（英國）、《International Journal of Biological Macromolecules》（荷蘭）、《Journal of Cellular Physiology》（美國）、《Cell Proliferation》（英國）和《Cell Journal》（伊朗）。她在組織工程和奈米生物技術方面擁有超過10年的教學經驗。她在同行評審的國際期刊上發表了超過30篇研究文章，並在幾本書章中擔任作者或共同作者。她的一篇出版物《3D Printing in Dentistry》是Springer Nature 2020年的亮點之一。
